        "text": "The overall timeline for a room addition typically ranges from three to six months once physical construction begins, not including the architectural and permitting phases. Early steps involve drafting blueprints, engineering calculations, and obtaining city approvals, which can take several weeks depending on municipal review speeds. Once permits are approved, the build starts with excavation and foundation footings, followed by framing the subfloor, walls, and roof trusses. After the addition is dried in with exterior sheathing and roofing, plumbing and electrical trades complete rough-ins. The final stretch covers insulation, drywall installation, trim carpentry, painting, tile or flooring, and final inspections before the space is move-in ready.",
